X character doesn't type lower case

After using a bluetooth phone with my MacBook the character "X" does not type the lower case. It only types in the upper case, so i know that the key is still functional but will not type when pressed alone....

Open the Speech pane of System Preferences and check whether either the listening key or the speech key has become set to x; if so, change the setting.

Cannot type lower case

I cannot type lower case alphabets. seems the shift key seems to be stuck. when i type numbers the signs above the keys appear instead. turning on/off caps lock doesnt help. when selecting one item from a list if the last item is selected then the entire list appears are being selected. On trying to restast it, now oit wont accept my password.
Im stuck. Please help.

George,
I'd wager that it is something that we are both loading, prior to running into the problem. My theory is that those previous images had the All Caps checked, and though we might not have done any Text work, that setting is being carried over.
My thought on the DVD Menus was based on the amount of work that I do with them. Some are from the Encore Library, and might have the All Caps checked. I need to pay close attention to when it comes up, and then look at my Recent Images list. That should tell me. Though you are not doing Menus, I'll bet that it is similar - that, or just the phases of the Moon...
I had never noticed this aberration, until about a year ago, and now have seen it a dozen times on my two machines. I will pay attention next time, rather than just fix and continue.
Good luck,
Hunt

Cant type lower case letters

I'm using Elements 8 and no font will type in lower case. All lower case letters are upper case only shorter. Any reason for this??

Double click on the text layer in the layers panel and press Shift+Ctrl+Y (Shft-Cmd-Y) and see if that clears things up.
If that doesn't work try resetting the text tool by clicking on the small downturned arrow in the tool options bar and choose Reset Tool.
Also check that the Caps Lock is not on.

Cannot type lower case characters in PSCS4.

Hello,
I am suddenly unable to type any lower case characters with the Photoshop type engine.
Everything comes out in all caps whether or not I've used the shift key or Caps Lock.
I have no idea how this happened or how to correct it.
Please help.
Thanks for your consideration,

I inadvertently used Caps lock. How do I make the type lower case?

This may have been answered before, and if so I apologize.
I tried the search forum function without success, and I tried Pages help without success.
I do not want to retype it.
Thanks

This doesn't come built-in to Pages, but you can add this capability easily -- download the hugely useful WordServices from Devon, which, when installed, will put a "Convert" menu option into the "Services" menu (under the Pages menu).
The system-wide Services menu is one of the extremely powerful yet woefully underused aspects of OS X.

Lower case letters won't type?! ! ! Is there a reason?

Hardly any of my lower case letters won't type in
Dreamweaver. Must have pressed the wrong button somewhere.
Please help
Rick

please confirm that this is or is not happening in a
half-dozen other
applications..
also- is there another spare keyboard you can try.
also- have you restarted the computer.

PDF created with InDesign CS6, Helvetica Neue font, causes lower-case "r's" to be bold

The pdf was created from InDesign CS6 using Windows 7. I cannot recreate the problem on my machine, but it is happening on a coworker's machine. The only character affected is the lower-case r. It appears bold when viewing the pdf of his machine. I am also running Windows 7 and it looks fine to me. My boss is using a Mac and it also looks fine to her. Does anyone know what might be causing this problem?

Hmm...until it's isolated to the 'r' it surely sounds like the typical effect often caused by the "Enhance Thin Lines" preference setting in Acrobat/Reader/browser-x-plugin, which most commonly affects l's and i's.
It's also true that various servings of Helvetica Neue are at the center of many such tales of woe.
I'd recommend some simple testing on the co-worker's computer with PDF's produced under the same conditions using different fonts; perhaps some varied weights of the same Helvetica Neue.

Can get lower case letters when using bios

I purchased a used macbook air. Changed the user to me but never changed the old user password. I recently autorize an update and I can't get in without a password. I never changed the old user password and newer assigned a password to my name. Now I can't get in. I tried going to the bios but I only cant type upper case letters and no lower case letters. Can someone help me as to how I can type lower case letters when I start the bios?

Unfortunately this is often the case, particularly if the field is not properly identified as a password field, and is true for both Web pages as well as (poorly designed) BlackBery applications.
I've just gotten into the habit of typing the first letter of my password, then hitting the [Del] key, then typing in my full password all the time!

Capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

In Pages capitalization doesn't work as described. One can start with lower case and change to upper, but changing from upper case to any of the other options doesn't work. Is there a way around this or is this just a glitch that needs fixing?

I think it does work as described, but the description is not very complete. Capitalization does not change any of the characters that you type; what it does is allow some of the lower case characters to display as capitals. If you copy the result and paste it as plain text, you'll see that the lower case characters are still there. It doesn't actually say anywhere that it can make capitals display as lower case, and it can't.
The obvious way around this is to actually type what you want.
The more powerful way is to install WordService from Devon Technologies which adds the functionality of Pages' capitalization menu as well a lot of other ones. WordService actually changes the character to the one displayed, and it works in most of the applications on your Mac.

My zagg key board connects but the keys I type either don't type character, type 2 characters that are different when I hit only 1 key, or doesn't type at all. Is there a way to reset zagg keyboard to factory settings?

Recharging is a good thing to try. They do start to act odd when the battery gets low. Beyond that, just like Tom says, contact Zagg. I have one of their keyboards and the company has wonderful customer service.

HT1338 My MacBook Pro (running Leopard 10.5.8) won't allow keyboard to type an upper case 'C' using the shift key...works fine with caps lock, or, with my Typinator workaround using double-typed lower case c (not always best). Any ideas?

My MacBook Pro keyboard won't type an upper case 'C' using the shift key... only with caps lock. Workaround has been to use Typinator by typing a double lower case c, not always the best solution. Mac is a refurbished model, which initially was fine. Apple tech helped me correct the quirk when it first appeared, but now it has returned and refuses fixes. Any ideas?

I'm willing to bet that this has something to do with iCloud. I've been facing a frozen computer nearly every time I go into it.
In Activity Monitor I have seen two programs associate with iCloud that take up about 2.5 GB of memory (I only have 4 in the computer) -- causing everything to freeze. One of these is called "iCloud Helper" and the other one is something like "Address Book Sync helper" -- I see parts of these names in the stuff you have posted.
I am at my wits' end with these and have written to Apple asking them to do away with these or fix them. To get rid of the Address book sync thing I have gone into system preferences for iCloud and unchecked Contacts -- but then spontaneously it gets rechecked. And oftentimes after I Force Quit the iCloud helper, it spontaneously turns on again. My conclusion --- the iCloud is basically unusable. It turns a Mac into the most useless, clogged, sluggish PC. If this is happening to a lot of people's computers -- and I see no reason why yours or mine should be an exception -- these programs just might destroy Apple itself.
So -- I'm about to completely give up on iCloud, and I suspect that others will too unless this gets fixed.
Cheers,
Bob

Hi, i forgot my macbook pro(snow leopard) password and i tried to reset it through single user mode, but whenever i type, everything comes out in CAPs instead of lower case. Each time i press the minus(-), it always comes out as an underscore(_).Pls help.

Well, you can try easing the shift key up with something thin but flexible (credit card sort of thing) but if the contacts below are stuck you may need to get it seen to by an authorised repairer.
If you can borrow a keyboard (a PC one will probably work as long as the password is alpha-numeric with no special characters) you can at least get in to backup your HD before going for repair.
